To get a better handle on available IP space across all devices, stabilize the University's IP address management environment and open up disaster recovery options, UIT’s network team deployed Infoblox.

With an ever-growing student population, a huge increase in mobile devices, and an increase in medical devices on campus, it's critical that the University is equipped to meet current and future growth.

On November 30, 2016, UIT switched off the old Campus Network Backbone (CNB), marking the end of a major undertaking to move all campus and hospital buildings over to new network backbone equipment.

It's safe to say that the university's network operations team is one of the busiest groups on campus - and that’s why we've decided to launch a new website to provide a channel for communicating network news.

In May 2016, University Information Technology contracted with a consultant to begin a huge endeavor: a physical wireless survey of over 200 buildings across campus.

If you happen to see strangers walking around your building with scanning equipment in the coming weeks, there’s no need to worry – it’s simply part of the campus-wide physical wireless survey UIT is conducting in the month of May.

Most of us wake with the expectation that once we get to campus, our computers will power up, our devices will connect to the network and our phones will work.
